kurt Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Looks like Pill Hill....that's about 90 something and Jeffrey, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Simon Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 It's the curvy street that's goofy, at least about most of Chicago proper. That's why I thought about 8000 south, just west (east?) of Kedzie; bunch of Georgians on curvy streets there (& termite heaven). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 West, around Tripp and in that general area. There's some curvy stuff over by Pill Hill, but it's a little south of the Hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Raymond Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Georgians? Those are barracks. Bleck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Lamb Posted April 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Georgians? No, Chicagoans. There must be several thousand of these on these south side. I'm not sure if there is an uglier design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 There's tens of thousands all over the metro area, universally called Georgians. I have no idea where the name came from. Another one of those realtor hand jobs. Ugly, stupid little houses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hausdok Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Gawd! After seeing #3 I'd better not ever hear another complaint from one of you Chi-Town guys about how strange our Northwest houses look with their deep overhanging eaves. Looks like East German housing. ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 It is. It's worker housing. Chicago exploded as a metro area for 75 years, as much as any Chinese city is exploding today. Lotta houses got built. The methods were industrialized. Georgian's are real simple. Stupid and ugly, but simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
